  1. Reclassification indices were calculated for the addition of neck circumference in the model adjusted for age, sex, and BMI
  2. AHI apnoea-hypopnea index, BMI body mass index, CHF congestive heart failure, CHD coronary heart disease, NRI net reclassification improvement, IDI integrated discrimination improvement
